What is the S3 Frontline Clash Tournament?
The S3 Frontline Clash Tournament is an elite weekend competition built into the Season 3 creator program. Qualified Twitch creators (10K+ followers) earn points for streaming Arena Breakout: Infinite raids on the Lockdown Zone and Forbidden Zone. Points are tallied per round and the Top 50 streamers (per round) split the $40,000 prize pool. If you’re a content creator with a significant audience, this is a direct, gameplay-based payout opportunity from the developer.
Prize breakdown (per round)
The Top 50 streamers in each round share the $40K pool as follows (official payout tiers):
- 1st–5th: $600 each
- 6th–10th: $550 each
- 11th–20th: $450 each
- 21st–30th: $350 each
- 31st–50th: $300 each.
(Note: those are the per-place values for each round as stated by the official announcement.)
Event schedule & maps (important)
- Round 1 – Farm: Nov 21, 00:00 – Nov 23, 23:59 (UTC+0).
- Round 2 – Northridge: Nov 28, 00:00 – Nov 30, 23:59 (UTC+0).
Both rounds focus on Lockdown Zone and Forbidden Zone map play. Make sure to stream only during the official windows – only playtime and extractions that match your ABI streaming hours count.
How scoring works (how to maximize points)
The Frontline Clash scoring formula (official) weights streaming time, watch hours, loot value and kills. Per the event rules the total points formula for Frontline Clash is:
Total Points = (Time Streamed × 5) + (√Hours Watched × 0.7) + (Loot Value ÷ 3,000,000) + (Kills ÷ 4)
Key scoring caps/notes (per the event rules): streaming and watch-hour components have practical caps (check the registration/leaderboard pages for live limits), and only successful extractions on the designated maps count. Make sure your in-game playtime and the ABI streaming hours match to avoid invalidation.
Example (quick):
If you stream 10 hours during the event window, with 100 watch-hours, 20 kills and 9,000,000 loot value, your points would approximate:
(10 × 5) + (√100 × 0.7) + (9,000,000 ÷ 3,000,000) + (20 ÷ 4) = 50 + (10 × 0.7 = 7) + 3 + 5 = 65 points (rounded conceptually). Adjust your strategy toward the components that scale best: consistent stream hours and steady watch time are weighted heavily.
Eligibility & registration
- Eligibility: Frontline Clash is for Twitch streamers with 10K+ followers (Elite streamers). (Future Legends is open to all Twitch creators with no follower requirement).
- Register once: Registration is open now; you register once for both Future Legends and Frontline Clash via the official registration page. Use the same registration to participate in both events (if eligible).
How to register (step-by-step):
- Visit the official event registration page (Arena Breakout: Infinite event apply page).
- Log in / provide required creator credentials and enter your streaming channel information.
- Confirm you meet the Frontline Clash follower requirement (10K+ on Twitch).
- Stream during the official event windows and ensure your ABI playtime aligns with your stream.
Rules, verification & disqualification
- Your in-game playtime must match your ABI streaming hours – mismatches will be invalidated.
- Only successful extractions from the designated maps count.
- No cheating, AFK farming, or passive behavior – the official team reviews streams and can disqualify offenders.
- In case of ties, the participant who achieved the score earlier ranks higher.
- You can play solo or with a team, but only your UID data counts toward your score.
Pro tips to climb the leaderboard
- Prioritize consistent stream hours – Frontline Clash multiplies Time Streamed by 5, making sustained streaming extremely valuable.
- Keep viewers engaged – watch-hours contribute (√Hours Watched × 0.7), so promote your stream and run interactive segments to increase concurrent watch time.
- Balance loot & kills: Loot value and kills add steady points – aim for efficient raids that secure high-value loot and successful extractions rather than risky fights that cost time.
- Track your runs: Keep screenshots/logs that show extractions and loot (the event team verifies final rankings).
- Avoid long AFK or idle streams – long idle time to farm stream-hours can void your score.
